You are one of the most funniest, skilled and positive instructor Niko! I want to say thank you so much for sacrificing your time to create awesome contents and courses. You are the reason why we all can learn in the fun way, and keep our mindset positive.
hey im a student from china that trying to be a 3D modeler. i have problems with my ability to build a human head in right shape or form, that's why i found your channel here on TH-cam. Thank you for post these useful video , they 're very helpful! Best wishes from China!
There is one "problem" with your channel. I can't watch your movies and drink coffee at the same time because otherwise, I'll choke. Your sense of humor is just as great as your skillset ;-)
I started to watch you yesterday. Watched 3 videos and I must say you're one of the best blender teachers I saw on TH-cam - simple message, light form. Yeah I think it's that light form makes you so good to listen. Educational and entertaining. Suuuuper cool!
This is an absolute gold mine of information. Something I struggle with in sculpting is knowing exactly why something looks slightly off, and just generally coming to the wrong conclusion even if I scrutinise my sculpt and references. Stuff like the nose and lips I couldn't quite figure out the exact reason why they'd look terrible.
This has been one of the most useful videos ive seen on sculpting heads - I had been doing a few of these mistakes, and it seems so obvious now, thanks for your help
For anyone wondering how he increased polygons at 4:44 - Shift+R in sculpt mode. Drag mouse left or right depending on how dense you want it. Left click and Ctrl+R to confirm it.
I'm trying to learn clay sculpting. I've learnt a lot from your video. Much more than from other videos. When I watch a video of someone doing sculpture well, they don't usually contrast what they are doing against the common mistakes they are avoiding. So they too could learn from this. Many thanks.
Hi Niko. As a beginner and buyer of some courses from you on Udemy, I would like to ask you to remember to ponctuate the little touches that you do. Sometimes those little adjustments you do on th model ( like when you did the chewing muscle on the video above) are natural to you, but these micro adjustments are not so easy to see from a newbie perspective. Also, getting some kind of explanation of your throught proccess troughout the sculpture would be nice. ( Like: How are you seing the lines on the concept and how your adjustments are made and why you saw the need to add or remove features from each part. I hope I could be of service. And if you care to understand more, just ask. I love your energy!
Watched a few of your videos, tried making a head for the first time, over four hours making it, and I only managed to make the head, ears and nose... still proud of it
Man , you're an amazing teacher and I love your sense of humor . When people tell you to subscribe you don't subscribe & even they don't tell you then you sometimes subscriber😅
I am taking your courses on superhero anatomy and female anatomy. On your recommendation I bought Anatomy for Sculptors and it is one of the best purchases I've made recently, thank you for the great courses and for the recommendation on the book.
Man, another fantastic video. If you can at some point make that "other list" that would be so cool - you are brilliantly showing what we should "dont not do" ;) Have a good one and thank you!
Niko I took your female anatomy for artists course, I was crying so much because I couldn't get the face right. Thanks a lot for posting this video. Hopefully I will finish the model and it will come out sexy
Thank you so much. And sorry brother, I've downloaded some of your courses, cause no money here. You're amazing in friendly teaching. I've never seen such approach before. Take care
I recommend spending many months on only ears look at people get reference do them over end over, model them but also draw on paper. It will pay of, you will understand the form and do them much quicker.
Hi Niko I would like to thank you for the amazing tips you give it truly improved my prospectives and sculpting . . . . .continue the great work man 👍👍
Brought all three courses on udemy (really wish the one on wing fox was available with the cool dino and rider) really great work just keep them coming!
Life saver video Niko!. I'm enrolled in your Demon Huntres course (via your YT coupon to support you better) I'm struggling getting first head right. Just the video I need (right before proceeding to 2nd head). Glad I found it Thousands thanks for the mega tips Niko👍
Hi Speedchar, thank you for the video! Super informative! I just started with ZBrush, making a stylized character through ArtHeroes. But these tips are still super helpful, even for a stylized character!
Просьба!! когда моделишь что-то в блендере для видео, подключай аддон Screencast Key или подобные ему, чтобы в нижнем углу показывались нажатые тобой клавиши, новичкам это сильно поможет
I know it might not be helpful since it's 8 months ago, but I found it after some digging: Go to sculpt mode and press shift+R, move mouse left or right to decide how many voxels. Left click and ctrl+R to confirm. I don't know why this was so difficult for me to find, but I'm glad we both know it now!
hola, me asombra la habilidad con la que utilizas los pinceles, tienes algún curso, video o explicación para ello.Gracias por tus videos, estoy aprendiendo mucho, me leo toda la traducción de TH-cam de tus videos para poder seguirte, es duro pero creo que merece la pena.
Thank you for all your tips and tricks, Nikolay! I am wondering if you have any content/plans for sculpting mouth cavity for animation work on characters? Cheers!
I love this guy's sense of humor
Yh
Same here
He's really good at what he does
I lol at his little jokes with no shame
With his English it's even more humorous 😄

For anyone wondering how he increased polygons at 4:44 -
Shift+R in sculpt mode. Drag mouse left or right depending on how dense you want it. Left click and Ctrl+R to confirm it.
And in newer Blender Versions it's just 'R' any more (at least by default).
And the operator command is 'object.voxel_size_edit'

"Don't not do it"
"Give the ears some love"
))))
Thank you for your content. Your tutorials are the best.
Im gonna spend some money on his seminars, but not only because of the knowledge he has to offer, but also because I love his humor xD
I'm glad there's more and more blender video coming from you, big fan!
Anyone that watches you work would conclude you are talented for sculpting.
You are doing it so fast

Your head is a good example of fine sculpting🎉

Very good explications.... thank you!!!! 🧐👌

Hey! Thanks so much for your tutorials! You're really the best. I was wondering if you could create a tutorial on stylized hand sculpting?
Thanks!

What's the hotkey used at 4:44? That seems really helpful
I know it might not be helpful since it's 8 months ago, but I found it after some digging:
Go to sculpt mode and press shift+R, move mouse left or right to decide how many voxels. Left click and ctrl+R to confirm.
I don't know why this was so difficult for me to find, but I'm glad we both know it now!
Great Content as Always!
bro you are a
legend love from australia ahah

I found one of my sculpts made a few months back looks like one of your student's work...😁😁😁
Thank you for all your tips and tricks, Nikolay! I am wondering if you have any content/plans for sculpting mouth cavity for animation work on characters? Cheers!
I'd like to see a video of you sculpting something that your audience has sent in. Like a bust of a person perhaps.
Николай, жги! Ты лучший!
Hello friend!
How do you create this floating ref image panel?
I wasn't able to do it like yours.
Thanks for the video and share you knowledge!!!
thank you so much for your videos
I'm guilty of a few of these!
how do he increased the poligons at 4:40? i Mean the short cut
R to set the size. Ctrl + R to apply it.
Excellent video!
Thank you.
I love your educational videos, but what tool/ software do you use to draw over pureref would be nice to know, thanks.
Awesome. I love this. Even as a long time sculptor I find this very useful. Nuance is very important.
Excellent.
Thanks great video. Браво добър си много. +1 sub
nice green screen bro. i'll never forget the OG webcam though!
5:18 me after sticking my finger up my nose three seconds ago: yeah i really shouldn't have done that
Thanks!
This is really helpful
Is there a tutorial on blender topology?
Is there a download link for your startup file?
"and then, suddenly... nostrils!"
Your mistakes are better than my best works 🤣
Is it just me looking at his head instead of the reference photos👀
Thanks a lot I follow your some of your course which really helpful for me . But I still make a mistakes in proportion please help me !

Very helpful - sadly keystrokes/mouse buttons are not showing.
Hi komşu :) I love your works and tutorials. Can you share with us your pureref file?
I will, this will be the pureref i will use and probably put on the project files in my upcoming course.
@@SpeedChar you are the best neighbor ever :) Don't tell Greece that i said that 😅
